A bookmark is usable and a piece of art, therefore it is functional art.
MICA believes that there are many building blocks of communication and our Heritage is one of them. There are many facets to it and the Heritage of a city subtly communicates the history of that place. Communication does not always need to be obvious. There can be many layers to it. The serene Swami Narayan Mandir talks to you and so does the narrow lane in the pol. The chabutaras tell you a story and so does the magnificent Jumma Masjid.
The walk makes you look back and reminds you of our rich culture and history. The thought behind every structure in the walled city of Ahmedabad provokes you to think. And if you thought were the concept of rainwater harvesting and air-conditioned homes without electricity came from, it's here!
The Heritage Walk of Ahmedabad is one of its kinds in India. It is the brainchild of Mr. Debashish Nayak, advisor to the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation. The walk aims at preserving the rich heritage, so that it can be passed on the generations to come.
Through posters students have tried to narrate many stories so that the world that exists inside Ahmedabad does not go unnoticed. We wish you a pleasant journey in the old, unexplored city of Ahmedabad. This walk is surely a walk to remember.

The Legend invites you for a walk
Kavi Dalpatram was the pioneer of modern Gujarati poetry. He not only wrote narrative poetry on an epic scale; but also promoted the Swami Narayana Sect that marks the beginning of the Heritage Walk. He also contributed towards the upliftment and education of women. The man, who now sits poised in Dalpatram Chowk welcomes you for the walk. Pay a deserving tribute to the legend. Take the heritage walk.

The End of male domination
And a platform to elevate women
Perhaps no other city has made such significant contributions towards women empowerment and education. As you take the Heritage walk, past the exquisite architectural wonders of Ahmedabad, you’ll come across the amalgamation of varied cultures: the Juma Masjid, for instance: it was the first in the world to allow women to pray at a mosque. Not surprisingly, it is recognized as one of the most beautiful places of worship in Islam.
